You mean phantom. I still like the movie.
No, that would be "fantom", not fandom.
Fandom? I love that movie, "Fandom of the Opera!" Emmy Rossum is DDG.
It is. You, on the other hand, underestimate the fandom.
Quidditch? I thought that was fictional.
Americans have quidditch? I thought it was in the UK only. Will they ever join the interscholar turnaments?
Hi Bob;
Well, it was easy for me, as I remember that trip well. My sister was still doing her hair or something when I set off. As you can see, she drives somewhat recklessly, with only a nice hair do and a winning smile to protect her from an angry state policeman.
Hi anonimnystefy;
You are correct I did not read that part of the problem. Very good!
I am getting as the answer...
ohh! I get it Bob! I was confused on how you plug in the second equation, because I kept plugging in 75x - 5. Thank you all for helping me!

Klarman Cell Observatory
Human diseases arise from malfunctions in the cellular processes that control physiology – a key component is missing or defective; a key 'circuit' is over- or under-active. To understand disease and develop effective treatments, we need a comprehensive picture of all the cellular components and all of the cellular circuits in which they function.
The Broad Institute's Klarman Cell Observatory, established by the Klarman Family Foundation, is a pilot effort to systematically define cellular circuits in mammalian cells. It builds on breakthrough technologies and on collaborations that cut across scientific disciplines.
Applications for the Broad-Israel Partnership Program are now being accepted. The application is available at the Israel Science Foundation website. The application deadline is Nov 3, 2014.
Applications for the 2015 Broad-Klarman Cell Observatory collaborative projects are now being accepted. The application deadline is Nov 1, 2014.
Second Annual Broad-Israel Symposium will be held on June 25-27, 2014 at the Broad Institute, Cambridge, MA USA.

StarOS is a wireless networking operating system designed for ISPs. More information about the product is available at http://www.star-os.com.
Valuemount Network Corp.'s StarOS operating system insecurely uses a static secure shell (SSH) private key and salt value across all systems, allowing an attacker to launch man-in-the-middle (MiTM) and high-speed brute-force attacks.
StarOS, also known as Station Router, utilizes the a static SSH private keys, that can be obtained through the analysis of a virtual machine memory dump.
With possession of these keys and physical access to a system running StarOS, an attacker can launch a stealth MiTM attack using a publicly available tool known as SSHarp, which is available at http://stealth.7350.org/7350ssharp.tgz.
StarOS also utilizes the same salt value of "st" when using the function crypt() on passwords. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability in a brute-force attack by generating pre-computed dictionary files, thereby greatly increasing the speed of such an attack.
An attacker who can gain access to a network running StarOS can launch a stealth MiTM attack due to the use of a static key. Successful exploitation would allow an attacker to completely compromise the system while completely avoiding detection.

Half-a-century stands center stage, in the spotlight. The curtain rises on 1964, as the Festival Playhouse of Kalamazoo College opens its inaugural season as part of K's theatre arts program. A great deal of work, however, had taken place behind the scenes before that curtain could rise.
This past summer, in the midst of gearing up for Festival Playhouse's golden anniversary season, Lanny Potts, technical designer and professor of theatre arts, sat down with Ed Menta, professor of theatre arts and director of Festival Playhouse, to consider all that has happened to bring the Festival Playhouse to where it is today.
"Think about it," says Potts. "Some 50 years ago K started the K-Plan. And when we think about the beginning of the Festival Playhouse, we think about Nelda K. Balch, and how she integrated theatre and the K-Plan. Through Nelda, we achieved excellence—and I do mean excellence."
Nelda K. Balch joined Kalamazoo College faculty in 1954, originally as a speech and English professor. There was no theatre arts academic program, but theatre was Balch's greatest passion. During her years at K, until her retirement in 1981, and then, because that's how passions unfold, putting in four additional years, Balch created a legacy.
"In 1958, Nelda directed the first college or university production of Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot," says Menta. "It was a landmark play, dazzling, and K was the first college to do it. Today it's a modern classic, but in 1958, it was considered to be a weird, unusual play."
When the play debuted overseas, audiences walked out. At K, it was no less provocative, a story about two vagrants waiting for Godot, who never does show up, and having philosophical conversations while waiting. Balch, committed to excellence in theatre, easy or not, brought the play to K's stage not just once, but twice.
The legacy of Nelda K. Balch was taking root for a theatre program that would come to be known as provocative and thoughtful, never compromising artistic integrity.
"Nelda had a personal relationship with Dorothy Dalton," Potts says. "It was through the generous support of the Dorothy U. Dalton Foundation that K students had the opportunity to work in theatre through the summer, and to work with art experts."
Clair Myers, who had worked alongside Balch for 16 years building K's theatre program, is today the executive director of the Wayne Theatre Alliance.
"For a long time Nelda was a one-person department," Myers recalls. "I was at Kalamazoo College from 1966 to 1982, and back in the 60s, the theatre was on the third floor of Bowen Hall, which is now gone. Dorothy Dalton liked Nelda's choices in plays, and she gave K a gift to build a better stage.
"I'm very proud of what we accomplished during that time," Myers adds. "The theatre department made adventuresome choices in plays, not typical of colleges then or now. We started a pattern of one classical piece, one avant-garde, and one musical."
That pattern became a tradition bequeathed to subsequent professors in the department. They include Brant Pope, Larry Jaquith, Ed Menta, Lanny Potts, Karen Berthel, and others.
"What I think was remarkable about K's theatre—and continues to be—is that students could be every bit as prepared for the 'real' theatre arts world with a liberal arts degree as a student who had followed a narrower B.F.A. degree program," Myers says. "K students certainly had a greater level of maturity and resiliency than would be expected of newly-minted graduates."
Theatre majors today can take advantage of drama study in England, experimental projects in the Kalamazoo College's Dungeon Theatre, placement with regional and professional theatres, and the opportunity to participate in the New York Arts Program.
Jon Reeves considers himself a "short-timer" in the theatre arts program. He was hired seven years ago as director of technical theatre. "The 50th anniversary of Festival Playhouse is a season of celebration. The lives of our students are changed by the unique noncommercial theatre we offer as well as the ability given to them to create shows in our black box space," Reeves says. "Students are involved in every aspect of theatre, from helping choose the season to all the technical, management, and acting positions. This type of hands-on training helps with future jobs or education in a way no classroom can."
"Our students do extraordinary work," Potts agrees.
Menta nods. "Theatre at K exists on the accomplishments of our students. We also collaborate with community theatre in Kalamazoo as a member of the Theatre Kalamazoo Consortium. It's the ethos of Kalamazoo that instead of competing against one another, we work together."
"Ed has the ability to thoughtfully connect our work at K to our community," Potts adds. "Kalamazoo is uniquely rich in arts, but we differ in that when we do select commercial work, it is with the intention of how we benefit our community and also our students, how we tie that selection into liberal arts. We are fortunate that we are not entirely dependent on ticket sales," Potts says, giving the Festival Playhouse greater freedom to make braver choices in play selections. "We've had some plays that are poorly attended. It's a risk you take, especially with new work."
Menta lists area theatre in which K theatre faculty is involved. Reeves, he says, works with several Kalamazoo area theatres, as well as in nearby Saugatuck. Potts designs for Farmers Alley Theatre in Kalamazoo, and Karen Berthel, department chair for theatre arts, also works at the Kalamazoo Civic Theatre.
Theatre, all agree, is a uniquely collaborative effort. Therein is part of its practicality.
"Students often say they can't major in theatre," Menta smiles, "because it's not practical. We meet with First Year Seminar students and talk about theatre arts and how theatre teaches you skills that are useful no matter what career you choose-- collaboration is one of those skills. And theatre incorporates all liberal arts disciplines--philosophy, history, politics, business, science: they're all in theatre."
Potts agrees. "Business today is looking for people who know how to work collaboratively. You can teach all kinds of subjects, but it's hard to teach people how to work. You see it on sites like LinkedIn: employers are looking for people who have passion, dedication, discipline. There's no better place for that than theatre. In theatre arts, you learn how to sacrifice for the greater good. If you come to work willingly, and you are intellectually engaged and focused, you will excel in life. That's what theatre teaches you."
Menta explores the liberal arts aspects of everything he brings to the Festival Playhouse stage. He frequently brings in professors from other disciplines to speak to theatre students about elements of current production—political
"In theatre arts you learn how to sacrifice for the greater good."science or psychology, for instance—and invites alumni to work with and mentor current students.
If Balch broke new ground staging Waiting for Godot, Menta did likewise with Sarah Ruhl's In the Next Room (or the Vibrator Play), directed by Karen Berthel. Well, a play by alumna Lisa Kron '83, came to the stage at Kalamazoo College after winning a Tony Award in 2006. The performance of Well at K was the play's first on a college or university stage.
Menta brings the world to Kalamazoo College, and then takes his students out to the world. In 2008, Nobel Prize laureate Wole Soyinka came to K from Nigeria to watch a performance of his play, Death and the King's Horseman at Festival Playhouse. The play involved Nigerian guest artists Febi Euba (director), Omafolabo Soyinka (choreographer), and Bisi Adeleke (master drummer). In 2012, Menta brought guest director Irfana Majumdar from India to Kalamazoo College, where she and students created and staged the play, Kahani. Then, they took the play to Varanasi, India, for a performance there. Varanasi is a study abroad site for a number of K students.
"What makes theatre at K so distinctive," says Menta, "are these special projects. The 50th anniversary season will live up to this standard."
Festival Playhouse will celebrate its golden anniversary with a grand re-opening of the Nelda K. Balch Playhouse, a return engagement (The Dog and Pony Show) by performance artist Holly Hughes '77, a Homecoming evening of favorite scenes from the favorite plays of alumni, and three classics of modern drama--A Dream Play (August Strindberg), Peer Gynt (Henrik Ibsen), and a restaging by Nora Hauk '04 of the Max Frisch comedy, The Firebugs, which played in the original Festival Playhouse season 50 years ago. The golden anniversary also includes a "talkback" series led by K theatre alumni, a senior student performance series, and more.
Talkback productions, Menta explains, feature a question-and-answer period involving the audience and members of the production. And Hughes' appearance continues a recent tradition at K: the Festival Playhouse Diversity Guest Artist Series. "We've brought some top-of-the-line theatre artists to Kalamazoo through this series," says Menta.
"What we do in theatre arts is often a life-changing experience for our students. I think that's due to the kinds of plays we do and how we do them, the way that we integrate theatre with a liberal arts education, our collaboration with the community at large, and our special projects. When I look back at all that we have done over the years, I am very proud of our accomplishments."
With the grand re-opening of the Nelda K. Balch Playhouse, with new lighting, reupholstered seats, and various other improvements, Kalamazoo College is prepared to raise the curtain on the next 50 years.

Pichu is a terrible Pokemon and should never be placed on a Little Cup team, despite the novelty of using it. Despite its decent and somewhat unique movepool including the powerful Volt Tackle, Pichu still fails to make an impact on the Little Cup metagame. This stems from Pichu's poor overall stats, which prevent it from pulling off the many sets it could run. Pichu is also almost completely outclassed by Elekid. Despite these flaws, if one is determined, there are a few good things about Pichu, including 16 Speed, which allows it to outspeed a good portion of the metagame, and moves such as Encore, Nasty Plot, and the exclusive Volt Tackle.
With a Choice Band equipped, Pichu reaches a decent 24 Attack, allowing it to deal massive damage to things not able to take Volt Tackle. Volt Tackle, with its 180 Base Power after STAB, deals good damage to Pokemon who don't resist it. However, because of its recoil, ThunderPunch is a secondary STAB option, with a noticeable power drop in exchange for lack of recoil. Return is the best possible coverage option available from Pichu's pitiful movepool, hitting Ground-types who are immune to its Electric STAB neutrally. Iron Tail is mostly filler, but hits Lileep and Snover hard on the switch, while Toxic is useful for crippling an incoming Hippopotas.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Pichu is probably one of the only Pokemon capable of effectively using a set like this due to its diverse movepool. Being the only Electric-type in the tier capable of using Fake Out or Encore allows Pichu to cause residual damage while also supporting the team with Encore, forcing switches or helping a teammate set up. Volt Tackle is an excellent STAB move to use with its high Base Power. Volt Switch is viable for scouting the opponents team, although this would put Pichu at the mercy of Ground-types such as Diglett and Drilbur. Due to that, Pichu can opt to run Light Screen, allowing it to help teammates take special hits more easily, as well as having use after Pichu dies, or Toxic, allowing it to cripple bulky walls such as Hippopotas.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Being the only Electric-type with Nasty Plot in the tier, Nasty Plot Pichu is somewhat effective. After a turn of set up, Pichu reaches 26 Special Attack if running Timid, while reaching 28 Special Attack running a Modest nature. STAB Thunderbolt is the main attack, hitting everything that does not resist it for great damage. Hidden Power Grass is used to hit Ground-types such as Sandshrew and Hippopotas, while also hitting Chinchou hard. Encore is used in the final slot to help Pichu set up, while also supporting the team.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Pichu has a plethora of other options to use. Wish would be a great move to use for recovery, but with such low HP, Wish will hardly heal even half of your teammates' health; Pichu also would not be able to use the Wish itself, as it cannot take a hit. Pichu can also use Thunder Wave to cripple some fast opponents such as Gastly, but because Pichu is not bulky enough to use the move, this is better left to other Pokemon such as Chinchou or Ferroseed. Lastly, a set consisting of Substitute and Encore using an Oran Berry is viable, allowing Pichu to set up Substitute on something that cannot threaten Pichu, and using Encore after that Pokemon attacks.
Checks and Counters
A lot of Pokemon can check or counter Pichu. Ground-types such as Hippopotas, Drilbur, and most importantly Diglett are the biggest counters, being immune to Pichu's STAB and easily OHKOing it back with Earthquake. Diglett gets a special mention for being able trap Pichu with Arena Trap, effectively completely removing Pichu from the game. Outside of Ground-types, bulky Pokemon such as Bronzor, Munchlax, Lileep, and Ferroseed can come in and either significantly damage Pichu or use it as setup bait.

Here is a September 1960 ad from the Valley News:
I remember riding with my P.J.'s and pillow in the package tray of our '36 Ford with Mom and Dad …
Dad worked at lockheed and we couldn't wait until he came home on Friday's or Saturday's for "Movie Night".
The only problem was during 1943 – 1945 when the air-raid sirens would go off, the screen went dark and everybody was told to stay in their cars … kinda scary … and it usually happened during the Cartoon … DARN!

Blood Feast was released in July of 1963.
The San Val is featured in "White Heat" (1949). Listed on the marquee outside are "South of St. Louis" and "Siren of Atlantis". On the screen, however, is an action scene from "Task Force".
The car-hop's uniforms are great.
Hi Lost Memory. Did you post the release date of "Blood Feast" as a point of information? Or to dispute ken mc's post that it was playing at the San Val in April 1964?
It was often the case that drive-ins didn't show first-run movies. In ken's ad, the movies Hud, Lilies of The Field and Cleopatra are all advertised as Oscar winners. They were all released in 1963, and the ceremony for those awards was held and televised on Monday, April 13, 1964. [Tom Jones won Best Picture.] Therefore, ken's post is correct.
Here is a March 1958 ad.
Here is a September 1961 ad from the LA Times:

While negotiating a salary and/or benefits is not always possible, many employers expect you to negotiate. It's important to know the trends in your field so you can present a common salary range and benefits to your employer. It's also important to know where you fit on the range - are you considered "entry level" or do you have slightly more experience than most applicants for this position? Location can also play a big role, as some areas are more expensive than others.

Tattoo service hopes to ink deal on new site
By Erika Wurst email@example.com January 4, 2013 12:26PM
Ink 180 founder Chris Baker speaks at Willow Creek Community Church in South Barrington. Through Ink 180, Baker offers free tattoo coverups to those trying to get out of the trafficking or gang life. | Brian Powers~Sun-Times Media
Ink 180 Ministries
or www.ink180ministry.com
Founder Chris Baker still needs donations to secure his tax ID, and could use donations for supplies. To learn more about his ministry, his mission and his foundation's need, visit his website.
Updated: February 8, 2013 6:06AM
Ink 180 Ministries is ready to draw up the papers on its first official home.
Ink 180 Ministries is a service offered by Oswego tattoo artist Chris Baker, who provides free cover-up work on tattoos for former gang members and victims of sex trafficking.
Baker is getting ready to open Kendall County's first tattoo shop this year and will finally have a place to call home.
"The Health Department heard some rumors that I was trying to open a shop, and they wanted to help me out," Baker said of a phone call he recently received.
"That is unheard of. But they really love what we're doing."
As quickly as that conversation happened, so did one with the bank, and another with a local property owner who offered up a free month's rent for Baker's new shop in Oswego Township.
"Basically, this is the realization of a dream I've had for a long time," Baker said.
Tattooing was a part-time gig for the family man, until he began work with the Ink 180 project. Even then, the work was for free, and the supplies were coming from his own pocket.
"Now, I can make money to support my family and money to directly support Ink 180," he said. "We're pushing ahead."
This past week, Baker got a phone call from a dermatologist who offered free laser removal services to support Baker's mission.
"This is the first time anyone in the professional medical community has come forward and offered to help," he said.
"All I really have to do is come up with $787 to get the (legal documents for his business). I'll take that tax ID to the bank, they'll cut my line of credit, and we'll get rolling."

Summary of ¡Obamanos! Summary of ¡Obamanos! Reviews for ¡Obamanos! An Excerpt from ¡Obamanos!
"Hertzberg has a novelist's control of metaphor and a comedian's gift for the one-liner."
-The New York Times Book Review
¡Obámanos! is powered by celebrated political essayist Hendrik Hertzberg's "Comments" for The New Yorker's "The Talk of the Town" and the personal blog he began keeping on the magazine's Web site fifteen months before the election. Hertzberg follows the players and the stars while examining the issues that emerged as critical during the debates such as health care, the Iraq war, and the economic crisis. Through his observation and analysis of the campaign's defining moments, we come to see the current political landscape in a new light. ¡Obámanos!--the title inspired by a poster Hertzberg saw on a dusty road near Santa Fe-heralds the opening of a new era in American politics.

A Masterful Balance
This etching, a screen design by great artist François Boucher, is iconic for its inclusion of the French word rocaille. In the eighteenth century, rocaille referred to the irregular rockwork that was used to embellish picturesque grottos and garden fountains but the word has since come to be synonymous with the rococo as a style. The design exemplifies the fanciful profusion of flora and fauna characteristic of the period. Sinuous plant forms asymmetrically frame a fountain encrusted with shells. Below, two monkeys squabble beside a flowing pool of water.

Live Reviews
Copenhagen Jazz Festival 2010
A more meditative approach to the future sound of jazz than the outgoing Emil de Waal and Jörg Brinkmann Trio was given by the British Portico Quartet, who built their concert around the critically acclaimed albums Knee Deep in the North Sea (Vortex, 2007) and Isla (Real World, 2009). As good as their debut is, it is the follow-up, Isla, which has defined and perfected the unique sound of the quartet. Carried by the florescent and electronically manipulated saxophone lines of Jack Wylie, the tight but yet elastic rhythm section of drummer Duncan Milo and bassist Milo Fitzpatrick and the signature sound of Nick Mulvey's hang drums, whose ethereal, ringing sound adds a flowing counterpoint to the groovy pulse of the rhythm section, the four musicians gave stunning interpretations of tracks like "Dawn Patrol," conjuring images of lonely birds flying in mountain mist, and the dynamic "Clipper," with Wyllie's saxophone singing over Fitzpatrick's funky bass patterns. While the compositions gave room to make the individuals shine, the aesthetic of the band is more songlike in its nature, with sophisticated structures emerging out of melodic motifs and rhythms. Portico Quartet has transferred the complex nature of jazz into the tight structures of pop, adding a feel of atmosphere from unknown movie soundtracks. Live, they gave a performance which fully justified the praise that has been heaped on them.
Well-tempered Jazz Pianos
As well as enjoying the future sounds of jazz, the festival also gave a special opportunity to hear some of the past, present and upcoming stars on the piano. The Jazzhus Montmartre had booked two living legends for several dates: Martial Solal and Kenny Barron, and both delivered the goods. Solal played two dates at Montmartre where he played in a duo constellation with Danish bassist Mads Vinding. Without any unnecessary talk, the pianist engaged in a musical conversation, deconstructing standards while wearing a quiet smile. Like Art Tatum, Solal is sometimes too much of a virtuoso for his own good, but it is hard not to be impressed by his technical skills and knotty sense of swing.
Kenny Barron, on the other hand, brought a more straight- ahead approach to jazz piano, playing with his quartet, including masterful tenor saxophonist David Sanchez. During the three dates he played at Montmartre, Barron spoiled the audience with a mixture of self-penned tunes, standards and newer original material. One of the highlights of the engagement was a smoking version of Tommy Flanagan's "Freight Trane" where Barron showed his ability to stretch a tune with emphatic elegance. The response from the audience was also overwhelming; smiling faces all around.
When it comes to attracting a mainstream audience, Vijay Iyer has been known to be notoriously difficult to comprehend, but his album, Historicity, with its more groove-oriented compositions and inclusion of popular songs, has opened the gates towards a wider audience, and the concert Iyer played at Copenhagen Jazzhouse also showed an inclusive pianist, whose advanced harmonies never lost track of the basic, earthy groove. Iyer, who has an encyclopaedic knowledge of music history, also served up a slice of jazz history when he played a stride version of "Darn That Dream," making a graceful translation from the past to present.
While Iyer has finally emerged from the avant-garde shadows into the limelight, it was also possible to hear a pianist who has long time ago received his breakthrough, but yet hasn't received the full critical acclaim he deserves: Kenny Werner. Together with saxophonist Benjamin Koppel, Werner arranged a mini-festival in the suburb of Valby where he and Koppel played in a number of all-star constellations. Among the highlights of the many sessions there was played was a band consisting of Werner and Koppel with bassist Scott Colley, drummer Al Foster and guitarist John Abercrombie.

Contract Research
Kreara places a keen focus on the clinical contract research industry and has been one of our major areas of expertise all through our existence. The CRO industry developed mostly in the late 1990s when pharmaceutical R&D efforts became more complex and competition in rapidly-growing therapeutic areas increased. As industry margins came under increasing pressure, companies began outsourcing aspects of their development, manufacturing or marketing processes so as to concentrate on their core specialties.
Outsourcing has been particularly influential in the pharmaceutical industry as the success of a large pharmaceutical company depends on competence in fields as diverse as combinatorial chemistry, computer integrated manufacturing and marketing medicines directly to consumers.
External cost pressures have acted as a major driver for the pharmaceutical outsourcing market. At bottom, the outsourcing market has developed in response to the downward and upward cost pressures exerted on pharmaceutical manufacturers' profit margins. Given that such pressures are likely to increase in the future, CROs will become more and more important strategic partners for pharmaceutical companies

CDISC Migration
Study Data Tabulation Model (SDTM) and Analysis data Model (ADaM) are two standard structures set by the Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium (CDISC). These standard structures are to be adhered to during data submission of human clinical studies to regulatory authorities like the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This transformation of raw data of a clinical study to CDISC standards is referred to as CDISC Migration.
Kreara has an expert team of professionals with sound knowledge in these standard structures, corresponding implementation guides, CDISC terminologies and the related ICH guidelines. The team keeps track of the latest developments and changes by subscribing to newsletters, actively participating in discussion forums and attending conferences.
As part of CDISC migration, the team develops the specification document and the annotated Case Report Form (CRF), which present the mapping of variables from raw database to the CDISC standards. The team also develops SAS programs which actually map the data from the raw structure to the standard structure and the SAS datasets containing data as per CDISC standards.
Bio Equivalence Studies
Bioequivalence studies are designed to examine whether the systemic bioavailability of a test product and those of the reference product differ significantly. Bioavailability captures how fast the drug enters the systemic circulation (rate of absorption) and how much of the nominal strength enters the body (extent of absorption). Two pharmaceutical products are considered to be bioequivalent if their bioavailabilities, from the same molar dose, are so similar that they are unlikely to produce clinically relevant differences in therapeutic and/or adverse events.
Kreara has extensive experience in performing statistical analysis for Bioequivalence studies. The proficiency of SAS programmers further enhances the computation and presentation of results in an appropriate manner.
The services provided by Kreara in this area are
- Preparing Statistical Analysis Plan
- Computation of the Pharmacokinetic parameters using SAS
- Statistical analysis
- Statistical reporting of descriptive and Graphical summaries
- Integrated Final Report

NBA trading season opens in full Saturday; Suns to make moves?
The Phoenix Suns are 7-15 and near the bottom of the Western Conference standings.
Pretty much every player on the roster is struggling to some extent, so it stands to reason trades could be on the horizon.
And with December 15 marking the date on which teams can trade the majority of free agents signed over the offseason, it's possible we're less than a week away from some deals being made.
Over at Grantland.com, the speculation is that the Suns would like to move Michael Beasley, though there isn't likely to be much interest in the forward.
The headliner here is Michael Beasley, and you can count on zero hands the number of teams that have any interest in acquiring Beasley now, with $6 million on the books for next season and at least $3 million for 2014-15. Saturday also frees up Jermaine O'Neal (reborn, and stealing Marcin Gortat's minutes), a fierce defender in P.J. Tucker (swiping Beasley's time), the very good Goran Dragic, and Shannon Brown, a decent rotation player when he doesn't have to create off the dribble.
The vultures are circling Phoenix, looking to see if they can extract value from the Suns' collective failure. The Suns have little interest in dealing Dragic, but the tension between Gortat and Alvin Gentry could lead to a larger deal � one that could include more puzzle pieces starting Saturday.
Needless to say, the Suns could be heading for a roster shakeup in the coming weeks, with some big names possibly being shipped out of town.

J.R. Reynolds is still trying to appeal to NBA teams, but the former Cavalier still has other options. Reynolds's agent has confirmed to Virginia Media Relations that he has received several "big offers" from teams overseas. The guard has not committed to anything yet, as he remains focused on making an NBA roster. Reynolds is currently listed as a free agent. He was not selected in last month's NBA Draft.

MARIN COUNTY -- There's an old song from the 19th century about a missing cat that goes, "The cat came back, the very next day. The cat came back, we thought he was a goner."
When a 14-pound cat named Kilo didn't come back to his home in Ross for two days, his owner, Michelle Battelle and her family tried not to think the worst, that he was a goner. But where was he?
That mystery was solved Monday morning when a neighbor heard Kilo's meows coming from inside a five-inch drainage pipe on Glenwood Avenue in Ross.
"How a 14-pound cat managed to get inside a five-inch diameter pipe is pretty remarkable," said the Marin Humane Society's Carrie Harrington. "Why he went in we don't know. Maybe he was chased by something or maybe he was chasing something."
What they did know was that Kilo wasn't coming out without some help. That's where rescue officers Lisa Nausin, Adrienne Russo and Steve Hill come in. They arrived on the scene with a small optical camera that's designed specifically for tight situations like Kilo's.
With the camera on a snake-like wire they slid into the pipe, they could see that Kilo was facing backward, wedged about six feet from the nearest opening.
"They saw that they could nudge him with the camera and he could move backward ever so slightly," Harrington explained. When Kilo got close enough, officer Nausin stuck her arm down the pipe, grabbed him by the tail and yanked him out.
"He wasn't a happy camper at first,
but he was excited to see his owner, who was standing by," Harrington said.
After the hour-long rescue operation, Kilo was frightened and in shock, but otherwise OK. After being treated by a vet for dehydration, he was back home that night.
"The officers saved his life." Michelle Battelle said. "We are so thankful. We greatly admire their handling of our scary situation."

I grew up playing AFL (Aussie Rules), however, at the age of 16 I was told I would have to bulk up if I wanted to continue in the sport. Knowing that you couldn't be bulky and run fast, and the consistent worry of injuries in a high impact sport, I made the decision to solely pursue a triathlon career. Years later I still find myself chasing my dreams and aspirations on the World Triathlon Series, representing Australia.

Guests arrived from Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania and a surprise guest, Stephen McKenzie, Carolyn's son, flew in from Florida.
Everyone was encouraged to dress in '50s outfits, everything from poodle skirts, B/W shoes, Elvis shirts, Pedal Pushers, scarves around necks and "Beach Boy" shirts were there; even Carolyn's little hairy "granddog," Chloe, was dressed in a poodle skirt.

The Stolen White Elephant
Kessinger Publishing, Jun 1, 2004 - Fiction - 64 pages
Never mind about that. I may, and I may not. We generally gather a pretty shrewd inkling of who our man is by the manner of his work and the size of the game he goes after. We are not dealing with a pickpocket or a hall thief now, make up your mind to that. This property was not 'lifted' by a novice.
What people are saying - Write a review
This is a wonderful piece of work from Twain. Humorous and satirical throughout. I must say that the negative reviews are obviously done by people who have not taken an English class in a long time.
